CUPS?

Rate this Message:
I need to create a print server, and it looks like DL will not work
since it doesn't contain cups. Would it be a lot of work to add cups? (I'll do the work, provided it's not a major pain). I'm not sure if cups is just one package, or if I'd have to go out and download a bazillion individual print drivers (or other crap). How is cups packaged? - BS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Devil-linux-discuss mailing list Devil-linux-discuss@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/devil-linux-discuss |

I don't have time to add CUPS to DL and still meet the deadline to get this print server up and running. Especially since I need to do some things I've never done before, like joining Samba to an Active Directory domain. I'm going to get this print server running on a different distro now, then add CUPS and port the server to DL later. (i.e. don't expect to see CUPS added to DL anytime soon) :-) For some reason I thought we already CUPS in DL, but I don't see any print server software.... - BS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Devil-linux-discuss mailing list Devil-linux-discuss@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/devil-linux-discuss |

Since the tar file is upper case, my 'ls src/lp*' didn't show anything. :-) - BS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Devil-linux-discuss mailing list Devil-linux-discuss@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/devil-linux-discuss |
